This Is Not Art
This Is Not Art festival is an annual extravaganza which includes: workshops, panels, performances, speakers, special events and exhibitions that challenge ideas about making art, making culture and making noise. Throw in some experimental indy theatre performances, artist networking, industry exposés, and some ripe social and political cheekiness, and you have a rough idea of what This Is Not Art Festival has become – the largest and most diverse annual media and arts festival in Australia.
National Young Writers Festival
The National Young Writers Festival is Australia’s premier event for emerging writers, publishers, performers and trouble-makers. Far from the seas of white hair, book signings and celebrity author worship you might expect, the NYWF is a DIY, hands-on conversation between equals.
Electrofringe
Electrofringe is a festival of experimental electronic arts and culture dedicated to skills development and artistic exchange. It focuses on uncovering emergent forms and places a particular emphasis on encouraging exchange between emerging and established artists.
Sound Summit
Sound Summit exists to support brilliant independent artists, labels and people that work and play in the world of electronic and hip-hop music from both Australia and abroad.
Critical Animals
Critical Animals musters together postgraduate and honours students (as well as those recently graduated and still at a loose end), early career academics, quasi-intellectuals and anyone else interested in devouring critical contexts for the kinds of experimental and emerging arts and media practices in the This Is Not Art program.
